Made famous by her status as the “daughter of”, Kaia Gerber can now boast of being one of the most desired models of her generation. A look back at the flawless career of the daughter of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber.
From “daughter of” to catwalk star
Born on September 3, 2001, in Los Angeles, Kaia Gerber was immersed in the world of fashion from a very early age. It must be said that with a mother like Cindy Crawford, a supermodel of her generation alongside Naomi Campbell , Claudia Schiffer and Linda Evangelista among others, her destiny seemed all mapped out. Even her father Rande Gerber, a former model and now businessman, could not say otherwise.
The young woman thus made her debut in modeling in 2011, posing for the children’s collection of the Versace label. She was only 10 years old at the time and yet, the charm already worked. “She has a very special gift. The camera really loves her,” Donatella Versace confided about her. A first foray into the ready-to-wear industry that could have marked the beginning of a long series of collaborations for Kaia Gerber, but it was not the case. Indeed, while Cindy Crawford knows everything about the profession, she doesn’t encourage her daughter to follow in her footsteps. Not so young, at least. “Today, she’s too young to pursue a career. But if she wants to start when she’s 17, I won’t have anything to say,” she says. It would then be necessary to wait until 2017 for her daughter to really take the plunge.
She is now 16 years old and her desire to break into fashion has never waned. For her debut, she became a model for several renowned advertising campaigns, such as Calvin Klein, Marc Jacobs, Saint Laurent or Versace. She also appeared on the cover of a host of magazines such as “Vogue” and “Pop Magazine”. Her career was launched, and would soon be confirmed during her first catwalks. At the same time, Kaia Gerber was invited to do her first shows on the podium, on the sidelines of New York Fashion Week. We find her at Coach and Alexander Wang and immediately, her look recalls the beginnings of her illustrious mother, revealed at the age of 15. A wind of nostalgia, mixed with an undeniable professionalism, which allowed her the following year to take part in the most prestigious shows: Fendi, Chanel, Isabel Marant, Valentino or Marc Jacobs. A new icon is born.
Cindy Crawford as a protective mother
This time, Kaia Gerber seems to be flying on her own, but Cindy Crawford admits that she is never far away. A protective mother, she wants to keep an eye on her daughter’s collaborations, as well as those of her son Presley, also a model. “Obviously, I want to give them the means to lead their own careers, but for now they are not ready. Right now, they are mostly saying: ‘Mom, tell me what I should do.’ Mom, as you can imagine, agrees with that,” she joked in the columns of “Town & Country” magazine in 2018.
A new face of Fashion Week, just like Lila Grace Moss, Kate Moss ‘ daughter , Kaia Gerber has established herself over the years as a personality to follow closely. When she’s not walking the catwalks, she’s attracting attention on the red carpet of the biggest ceremonies. The traditional Met Gala in New York, the CFDA Fashion Awards and the InStyle Awards. And her success is such that she was offered a role in Ryan Murphy’s event series, “American Horror Story”, in 2021. A way to add a string to her bow, but also to once again make Cindy Crawford proud, with whom she shares a close relationship. “I’m proud of her because I think she’s more confident than I was at her age. There were definitely things I wanted to try, like acting in a play when I was in high school. None of my friends were doing it and I didn’t know if I would be good at it, so I didn’t do it. Whereas Kaia did it all through elementary school, middle school, and high school,” she later said on Ellen Pompeo’s podcast, “Tell Me with Ellen Pompeo.”
Model and now actress, Kaia Gerber does not forget to lead her life like all young women her age. When she is not in the spotlight, she flourishes in the greatest discretion, she who is now 23 years old. To see some aspects of her personal life, you have to go to her Instagram page. Even her romantic relationships with Pete Davidson, Jacob Elordi and now Austin Butler are protected from the media as much as possible, thus cultivating the fascination around this trendy girl.
Gerber in Two-Piece Workout During Workouts
Gerber, actress, model, and daughter of supermodel Cindy Crawford, recently celebrated her 23rd birthday, and fellow model Karlie Kloss marked the occasion by sharing a photo of the two on Instagram. In the photo, Gerber is seen in black workout clothes, highlighting her dedication to staying fit. Known for working with trainer Kirsty Godso, Kaia’s fitness routine includes resistance training, treadmill runs, and TRX exercises. Here’s a closer look at how Kaia keeps her body strong and healthy.
She Works With A Trainer
Gerber works with trainer, Kirsty Godso, to help her stay in shape. Having a personal trainer has a lot of benefits. ACE Fitness states, “Fitness can be confusing. There is a lot of information to sort through. Eat this, not that. Cardio before or after strength training? Your trainer can help you find credible information and provide direction on your fitness journey. A trainer can help remove the guesswork so you can put all your energy toward accomplishing your goals.”She Resistance Trains
Godso shared some of Gerber’s workout secrets in an interview with George V Magazine. She says that she makes sure to do resistance training with the model. “One of the best ways to get toned is to incorporate resistance training,” Godso said. “If you don’t have access to weights or a gym, you can incorporate bands or just follow along using just bodyweight at home.”
She Runs On The Treadmill
She Does TRX
In Godso’s Instagram video, Gerber is seen using TRX cables. TRX has a lot of health benefits. Moorings Park states, “TRX training can be used to improve strength, core stability, balance, and flexibility. This fitness form allows for a full-body workout where resistance can be added or taken away by simply modifying the position of the feet or body…Any muscle in the body can benefit from TRX as this is a total body workout. Your arms, legs, core, and back are all used as your body is being held up by your strength. Furthermore, TRX is known to burn fat, build muscle, and improve flexibility.”
She Jumps Rope
Gerber is also seen jumping rope in Godso’s Instagram post. Jumping rope has a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic states, “Jumping rope can be a good form of cardio, which increases your heart rate and can help decrease your risk of cardiovascular disease. And when you increase your heart rate, you also burn more calories. So, how many calories does jumping rope burn? While it depends on your pace, on average, someone may burn about 100 calories jumping rope for 10 minutes.”
